"I remember “slicing” layouts in Macromedia Fireworks"
I share this history, and while Fireworks would export complete HTML, "responsible" web builders never allowed that. We would use the "slice" feature of Fireworks to manually export elements of our designs, and then using HTML/CSS we would create the layout code. Raw exports from Fireworks were horrendous, our hand-build layouts were lean, and worked great.

I guess I wasn't responsible - I confess that I left DreamWeaver's output intact: those sweet, shiny rollover buttons where easier handled by mm_preloadImages() :-D.
